So is that just a general knowledge type of thing or is there somewhere i could go to learn that type of stuff?

There is a book or some say the S&W Bible.

3rd. edition
Standard Catalog of Smith and Wesson

You can find it on Amazon. Don

Thanks for the info. Any idea on the price range?

I sold one for $575 about a yr ago, but I doubt you could find one in good condition for that now. Probably around $600.
